- ACT, KANSAS STATUTES Section 65-28,103
-
-
- DECLARATION OF @001
-
-
-
- Declaration made this __________ day of ________________
-
- 19________. I @001, being of sound mind, willfully and
-
- voluntarily make known my desire that my dying shall not
-
- be artificially prolonged under the circumstances set forth
-
- below, do hereby declare:
-
-
- If at any time I should have an incurable injury,
-
- disease, or illness certified to be a terminal condition by
-
- two physicians who have personally examined me, one of whom
-
- shall be my attending physician, and the physicians have
-
- determined that my death will occur whether or not life-
-
- sustaining procedures are utilized and where the application
-
- of life-sustaining procedures would serve only to artificially
-
- prolong the dying process, I direct that such procedures be
-
- withheld or withdrawn, and that I be permitted to die
-
- naturally with only the administration of medication or the
-
- performance of any medical procedure deemed necessary to
-
- provide me with comfort care.
-
-
- In the absence of my ability to give directions
-
- regarding the use of such life-sustaining procedures, it is
-
- my intention that this declaration shall be honored by my
-
- family and physicians as the final expression of my legal right
-
- to refuse medical or surgical treatment and accept the
-
- consequences from such refusal.
-
-
- I understand the full import of this declaration and
-
- I am emotionally and mentally competent to make this
-
- declaration.
